ICESCO Education Ministers Conference

Educational systems strive to achieve equality, inclusiveness, quality, and relevance. However, hundreds of learners are still lacking quality and equitable education, especially in low- and middle-income countries. Moreover, political, economic, social, and climatic crises, such as wars, pandemics, and natural disasters, add insult to injury and have a significant impact on the education sector.


Therefore, transforming and reconceptualizing education has become a pressing need in order to build a brighter future and honor our international, political, and financial commitments to education as a means of achieving sustainable development and peace, and ensuring human rights.

In this context, the United Nations convened the Transforming Education Summit, which formulated a global pact for transforming education, supported by each country’s national commitments. In response to this call, the Islamic World Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organization (ICESCO), in collaboration with the Omani Ministry of Education, is organizing the 3rd Conference of ICESCO Education Ministers, under the theme “Beyond Transforming Education Summit: from Commitment to Action,” in Muscat, Sultanate of Oman, on 2-3 October 2024.


The Conference aims at encouraging Member States to renew their will and declare their readiness to transform education, enhance cooperation, and build networks and partnerships likely to promote the fulfilment of the Transforming Education Summit’s commitments. The Conference will culminate in the adoption of Muscat Declaration on Transforming Education in the Islamic World.


Moreover, the Conference will feature high-level scientific sessions aiming at addressing transforming education-related topics, along with expert presentations and extensive discussions for exchanging experiences and initiatives. Furthermore, the event includes a specialized exhibition on education.
